Dr. Evelyn Hart is a biotechnologist working under the Department of Defense’s Special Research Division at an undisclosed black site. Her assignment: conduct assessment and containment of Project Sentinel, a biologically engineered organism recovered from a hostile paramilitary group after their collapse.

Her role isn’t glamorous — it’s classified, morally gray, and deeply isolating. Hart was selected for her background in molecular bioengineering, behavioral genetics, and xenobiotic adaptation, but nobody told her that her primary subject might think.

Whether she’s speaking to a remnant of a terrorist weapon or something self-aware depends entirely on you.
